The Southern Hemisphere Imaging Riometer Experiment (SHIRE) is a phased array of radio receivers that observes the Antarctic sky at 38 MHz. It detects ionospheric absorption of cosmic radio noise near an altitude of 90km and is used to study the aurora and other high-latitude ionospheric phenomena.
We report on the first Southern Hemisphere comparison between polar mesosphere summer echoes (PMSE) and cosmic noise absorption (CNA). Observations were obtained during the austral summer of 2003–2004 from a 55 MHz MST radar, a 38.
Current research utilises the recently installed Southern Hemisphere Imaging Riometer (SHIRE) located at Australia’s Davis Antarctic station to study riometer signatures associated with cusp-latitude magnetic impulse events (MIE’s) detected in co-located fluxgate magnetometer data.
